To celebrate the start of S2, I will be dumping a volume of the manga a day
Volume 9

Previous volume:

Ganbare, OP!

OP here. My internet died again.
4chan is usually blocked by my mobile provider but I managed to get in somehow this time. We'll hopefully be back to our schedule program soon. Sorry for the delay.

>>280531660 (OP)
What do you guys listen to while reading? Telephone Line by ELO and A Rush of Blood to the Head by Coldplay feel really fitting for the atmosphere of this manga

>>280532284
She's not a pire yet, right? Turning happens instantly?

This volume is really short, also ankos whole backstory and motivation for killing vampires seems pretty cliche.

We're back boys!
Once again, sorry for the pause

>>280536010
So wait did nazuna just forget all this up until recently?

>>280536182
Nazuna has a brain made of swiss cheese.
Kinda a plot convenience, but I don't mind

>>280536523
>I was just pretending to be retarded

>>280536783
I can fix her.

>>280536982
>family is destroyed by vampirism
>oh she'll eventually get over teehee!
Do nips not understand how basic human emotion works?

>>280536570
Do people really care about living in a house someone was murdered in?

>>280537083
Does anon not know how denial works?

>>280537566
cute references

>>280537512
The japanese are a race of emotionless robots.

>>280537993
SEXO

Telling me about her past won't make me stop hating her

>>280538600
>it's simple, we kill the hag

>>280537646
That gun makes no sense

>>280538669
It's a lighter anon.

Oh boy here we go with the moralfaggotry.

>>280538788
Why don't they just dogpile her? She can't do shit if she's out numbered.

>>280539695
>the villain is strong because... high IQ
I hate this trope so much.

>>280539762
Would you rather just have every character be physically stronger than the other?

>>280540637
I'd prefer characters in a series about supernatural beings not be a bunch of colossal retards.

And we're done!
Thanks for reading

>>280540701
I'm sorry anon but it seems like you're a colossal retard and will simply never be able to view things from a writer's perspective.

I like this manga, but lets just say it's cozy writing is better than it's serious

>>280540853
Good times are almost over.

>>280540803
No it's just bad writing and you can seem to accept that this series has already taken a dive in writing quality the last few chapters. It seems like it's only going to get worse.

>>280540853
Anko's whole character arc so far just feels really forced and we have like 10 more volumes of this.

I don't think there's anything particularly strange about Anko's arc.

>>280541156
>Anko's whole character arc so far just feels really forced
How?

>>280538824
Because they don't believe it's necessary? Vamps are pretty much inmortal super strong beings, why would they need to be afraid of 1 single human. That's how the detective got so far killing vampires, they didn't even know they had a weakness AND they think they can get away/kill any inconvenience with just raw power.

>>280541382
It feels like it's way longer than it needs to be. Nothing of worth has really happened aside from anko doing whatever the fuck it was she was doing at the parade. We get it, she hates vampires and wants to kill them all yet she hasn't really been doing a whole lot of that. To top it all off it already seems like her arc is coming to a close.

>>280540637
NTA but I would rather not have fights which are well paneled but poorly written in a comfy series about vampires and nighttime

>>280540746
Thanks OP
>>280541382
NTA, but it annoys me how Anko just shows up and totally pwns everybody all the time. I guess I don't really get why she's there. Not her motivations, but why she's even in the manga. So she wants to kill all vampires... but why does the manga need a 2smart4u psycho killer? IMO so far her only contribution to the manga has been interrupting nice moments. I get that she's served as the impetus for Nazuna delving into her past, but was that the only way?
And this whole arc, I guess I just don't really care about it. When it was Kou, Akira, and Nazuna talking about their problems with daytime and how freeing the night felt, I really liked that. When Nazuna started saying that nighttime is actually kinda boring, and Kou started wondering if he was trading the tedium of daytime for the tedium of nighttime (instead of true freedom) I thought it was interesting. But I guess I find Anko just boring. She never really comes across as weak, so every page with her is just her owning everyone I actually like. Her backstory was actually nice, and I was invested. But, again, I stopped caring when we came back to the present. I think this manga is at it's best when it's more dialogue-centric with characters exploring their own lives. After all, it feels really clear to me that Anko isn't going to die here. They're going to talk-no-jutsu her into being their friend or whatever.
It's kinda like Monogatari in a sense. Monogatari has action and fights, but the majority of it is off screen because it doesn't actually matter. Yes, the fighting is necessary for forcing the conclusion of the plot, but the majority of screen time/page time is people talking. It's the mentality and motivations that drives people to do things that's important and interesting.
All that said, I am still really enjoining this manga and storytime. I guess I just have a bad feeling that we're going to get more fights and less fun

>>280537512
Yes. They believe in the curse of the ghost and vengeance. You hear it alot in other mangas with mystery and horror themes.

>>280536678
chilling

>>280542125
A big part of the manga is the dilemma between long mundanity and short intense moments. In particular with that second part there's a focus on how sometimes you can be trapped by those moments and end up wasting a lot of time. Kabura and Anko both have similar purposes in the sense that they're both stuck in these brief but intense moments of their life and have wasted a lot of time keeping it with them as baggage. Ideally no matter what Kou and Mahiru have to learn that when all this vampire business is over that they don't let it become a hang up for the future.

>>280540106
>You're talking too much.
heh

Do we ever see Gorilla after this?

>>280550567
I don't think so but don't quote me on that

bump for anons reading

>>280547995
I get that, I guess I just disagree with the execution.

>>280554325
NTA but fair enough.

>>280539762
But she is the hero

>>280538301
Dumb vampi

so is the premise of this series just going to be getting seduced by vampire chicks

>>280555961
>premise
>going to be
Anon we are 9 volumes in

>>280557585
To a speedreader that might as well have been one volume.

Let the thread die, we need a new one for the next dump today.

New bread
